On his way out? Flamengo decide Pedro’s future | OneFootball

Pedro Continues at Flamengo for the 2026 Season

Flamengo continues working on assembling the squad for the upcoming season and includes the striker Pedro. The club has decided not to release the player, and the goal scorer will be part of the 2026 group.

The investment in a new high-profile striker is not dependent on a possible departure of Pedro. This is because Flamengo is strategically planning for the current season, which begins on Sunday (11).

WHAT IS FLAMENGO'S PLAN?

The Flamengo management and Filipe Luís's technical team have set a goal to have two starting-level players for each position. Thus, the club is actively scouting the market for a striker to rotate with Pedro.

Finally, Flamengo's objective is to build a 'squad of 22 starters', ensuring two high-level teams to withstand the calendar. The idea is to offer tactical variations with forwards who have different characteristics from Pedro.

HOW IS FLAMENGO IN THE MARKET?

Flamengo attempted to sign the Argentine Taty Castellanos from Lazio (ITA). However, they did not achieve a positive outcome. Subsequently, the club made two official offers for Kaio Jorge from Cruzeiro but also ended negotiations without progress.
